Transform your bathroom with the sleek and sophisticated design of above counter basins. Sitting atop the vanity or countertop, these basins create a striking focal point that combines modern aesthetics with functionality. Whether you're designing a new space or renovating, above counter basins offer unmatched versatility, available in a wide range of colours, materials, types, and shapes to suit any style.

Colours to Suit Every Design

Above counter basins are available in an array of colours, making it easy to find an option that complements your bathroom décor. From timeless neutrals to bold statements, there’s a basin for every design aesthetic.

Neutral-Coloured Above Counter Basins

Neutral colours like white, grey, clay and neutral hue are versatile choices that work well in both modern and traditional bathroom styles. Matte white basins offer a clean and timeless look, while grey and clay provide subtle warmth and sophistication.

Black Above Counter Basins

Black above counter basins are a bold and dramatic choice that adds a touch of luxury to contemporary or industrial-style bathrooms. They pair beautifully with light-coloured countertops or matte black tapware.

Green Above Counter Basins

Green above counter basins bring a natural and refreshing element to bathroom design. Whether soft sage or deep emerald tones, green basins make a distinctive statement while complementing organic materials like wood or stone.

Pink Above Counter Basins

Pink above counter basins are a stylish choice for those seeking a playful or feminine touch. From pale blush to dusty rose, these basins add warmth and character to modern bathrooms.

Materials That Combine Durability and Beauty

Above counter basins are crafted from premium materials that offer durability, style, and functionality. Each material brings unique advantages and aesthetics to your bathroom.

Ceramic Above Counter Basins

Ceramic above counter basins are a classic choice, valued for their smooth, glossy surface and resistance to scratches and stains. They’re easy to clean and maintain, making them practical for busy households.

Concrete Above Counter Basins

Concrete above counter basins provide an industrial-chic look with their raw texture and solid durability. They are ideal for minimalist or urban-style bathrooms, offering a striking and modern aesthetic.

Stone Above Counter Basins

Stone above counter basins exude luxury and elegance, with options like marble, granite, or engineered stone. They are highly durable and offer excellent heat retention, making them a standout feature in high-end bathrooms.

Solid Surface Above Counter Basins

Solid surface above counter basins are sleek and seamless, providing a contemporary look that’s both versatile and practical. This material resists moisture and stains, ensuring a long-lasting and low-maintenance solution.

Types of Above Counter Basins

The type of basin you choose impacts both the functionality and visual appeal of your bathroom. Above counter basins are available in two main types to suit various vanity styles.

Semi-Inset Above Counter Basins

Semi-inset above counter basins are partially recessed into the countertop, leaving the upper portion exposed. This design saves space and offers a more understated look while maintaining the modern appeal of above counter basins.

Fully Above Counter Basins

Fully above counter basins sit entirely on the countertop, creating a bold and contemporary statement. Their sculptural quality makes them a focal point in any bathroom, adding depth and dimension to the space.

Shapes to Reflect Your Style

The shape of your basin is a key element in defining your bathroom’s design. Choose from a variety of shapes to find the perfect fit for your space and style preferences.

Round Above Counter Basins

Round above counter basins are a popular choice for their soft, organic feel. Their balanced design suits minimalist and modern bathrooms, offering a clean and harmonious look.

Oval Above Counter Basins

Oval above counter basins combine the elegance of a round shape with a slightly elongated design. This makes them ideal for creating a refined and contemporary bathroom aesthetic.

Rectangle Above Counter Basins

Rectangle above counter basins feature clean lines and a structured design, perfect for modern or industrial-style bathrooms. They offer a spacious and practical solution for larger countertops.

Square Above Counter Basins

Square above counter basins provide a modern and geometric look, making them a great option for minimalist designs. They create a bold and eye-catching aesthetic without compromising functionality.

Arch and Pill-Shaped Above Counter Basins

Arch and pill-shaped above counter basins strike a balance between traditional and modern styles. Their unique curved edges bring a softer, more approachable look to contemporary bathrooms.

Traditional Above Counter Basins

Traditional above counter basins are timeless in design, ideal for period-style bathrooms or those looking for a classic aesthetic. Their intricate details and curved forms add charm and sophistication.

Pairing Your Basin with the Right Tapware

Choosing the right tapware is essential to complement your above counter basin. Tall basin mixers are a practical and stylish option, providing the necessary height to pair with fully above counter basins. Alternatively, wall-hung taps offer a sleek and minimalist look while freeing up countertop space. Matching the finish of your tapware with your basin ensures a cohesive and polished bathroom design.

Maintenance and Care

Maintaining above counter basins is simple with regular cleaning. Ceramic and solid surface basins can be cleaned with mild, non-abrasive cleaners to keep their surface shiny and pristine. For stone and concrete basins, sealing is recommended to protect against stains and preserve their natural texture. Following these care routines ensures your basin remains a standout feature for years to come.

Elevate Your Bathroom with Above Counter Basins

Above counter basins are more than just functional—they’re a design feature that elevates your entire bathroom. With a range of colours, materials, types, and shapes, you can customise your basin to suit your style and needs. Pair it with matching mixers and finishes to create a bathroom that’s both beautiful and practical. Explore our collection today to find the perfect basin for your space.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the advantages of above counter basins compared to traditional inset basins?

Above counter basins offer several benefits over traditional inset basins, including easier installation, a wider variety of design options, and the ability to serve as a focal point in bathroom design. Their elevated position can also make them more ergonomic for users.

How do I choose the right tapware height for my above counter basin?

Selecting the appropriate tapware height is crucial for functionality and aesthetics. Measure the height of your above counter basin and choose a tap that allows sufficient clearance for comfortable use without excessive splashing. Consulting with a professional can help ensure compatibility.

Are there specific countertop materials recommended for supporting above counter basins?

Above counter basins can be installed on various countertop materials, including stone, wood, and laminate. It's essential to ensure the countertop is sturdy enough to support the basin's weight and resistant to water damage. Sealing porous materials can provide added protection.

Are above counter basins suitable for small bathrooms?

Yes, above counter basins are ideal for small bathrooms. Their compact designs and elevated position help maximise counter space while adding a stylish and functional element to the room. Semi-inset models are particularly space-efficient.

What materials are best for durability in above counter basins?

Ceramic and solid surface are popular for their durability and ease of maintenance. Stone and concrete basins are also robust options, offering a unique aesthetic but requiring occasional sealing for long-term care.

Can I install an above counter basin myself, or should I hire a professional?

While some above counter basins are straightforward to install, professional installation is recommended, especially if it involves drilling the countertop or pairing with wall-mounted tapware. This ensures proper alignment and prevents leaks.
